      I would like to change the colors used for html/css that is exported.
      Are there add-on themes for this?

      Notepad++ is open
      I copy the text from HTMLPad 2025 editor that has the elements colored.

      I paste the HTML text into Notepad++ then highlight the text then go to “Plugins” on the toolbar then “NppExport” then “Copy all formats to clipboard”.

      I then paste the text into Word 2024.

      The color is not the same in HTMLPad 2025 that I see in Notepad++
      The colors seen in Notepad++ are the ones that show up in Word 2024.

      This works for html code but the css code shows up as black text only.

        This issue has been fixed:
        I did the following. As I use a inline style sheet I created a “css color.css” file in Notepad++. Just a blank page that I can do the following:

        I can now paste my HTMLPad 2025 css code into Notepad++ with the colors I changed under Settings> Style Configurator.

        I also created a “html-colors.html” blank file and I can copy the html code with colors that Notepad++ provides that has been updated in the Style Configurator.

        Next I highlight the text then go to “Plugins” on the toolbar then “NppExport” then “Copy all formats to clipboard”.

        I can now paste in the html/css code into Word with the colors I want.

        I still cannot create a style in Word 2024 with colors as I suspect it would be too complicated for Word to figure what parts the different text it should color.
